Zalman ZM-FG1000 FPSGUN Gaming Mouse

i would rather go through the trouble (not much trouble actually) of modding the Wiimote to work with my PC.

I think I will stick with my MX518 for a bit longer thanks.
Looks really wierd though.

ewwww, no, just NO!

Same. Though I prefer the MX-1000

from just looking at how you hold that thing put me straight off, its not really a mouse more of a joystick tbh. That thing would hurt after long periods of gaming lol thats if you can hit anything.

I'll be keeping my mouse for a while longer i think

Ewwww, just no....

All it needs is the Fatal1ty branding for an all expenses paid trip on the failboat.

(Sticks with G5 and MX518)

Rofl, brilliant first comment - welcome to the forums! :)

Joe sadly omitted the image where I held the thing properly (as in upside down pistol style). It was much more fun that way, running around around the office making pew pew noses.

Thanks Tim, good to be here. Figured I have been lurking as a ghost on the forums for too long. =)

Yes I also felt that it was uncomfortable and way too small to make any impact.

And it is a whole habit change to get use it.

Also if you think about it, its like shooting from the hip, any cowboys around here?

..."though looking down to see what colour your mouse has changed to during gaming is akin to suicide on a busy, hostile map"

Well, this goes for all mice that allow this change. On Logitech's ist the amount of lighted led's, you still have to look down.
Right?

Don't see myself using it however, nice review!

The other issue is the order in which the sensitivity settings cycle; slow, medium, fast, slow, medium, fast, slow...etc. With mice that have LEDs indicating the sensitivity there are usually two buttons; more sensitive and less sensitive. Want to go fast, tap furiously on the more sensitive button, want to go slow? Tap on the other. On the FG1000 there is one, this makes you have to count your clicks and check your light to see if you are at the right setting. One click too many will give you a Diazapam induced mouse movement instead of a lightning fast one.

Damn, I wanted to skip through a giant article to get the conclusion but it was only two pages! What gives?

if i get it free, i'll make use of it, n get used to it.

pay for it? no thank you. Razer Copperhead FTW!

It looks stupid, and you would have to master how it works.

Could use some slightly better egronomics, and be a little higher to accomodate the whole hands.
Interesting concept.

if there is no sensual voice to describe how to use the product then no way am I going to read about it


for those of you who don't know what I am talking about.. let me jack the topic and post this :

Erm, it's a mouse review. Not much else I could write about without describing the box or dismantling it and listing the parts it's made of. ;)

I love it! are they actually serious? I think Zalman needs to jumnp on this band wagon cause this is the only way its going to sell this product :D

I hope someone got fired for this product...

I dont agree with this comment

you would still have to stick with your old mouse for everything else – for us, this ruins any of the value and attraction the design could have ever had.

If that's the case whats the point on reviewing it?! Surely its a tool for a specific use not an all purpose one. Would you discard all steering wheels cause you can't use them to msn your mates with!?!?
